Week 6 Touchdown Reflection

On Friday, March 9, students engaged in a performing arts themed Touchdown program run by one of the school’s music teachers, Miss Hannah Grigg. Students learnt a Torres Strait Islander song and dance, sang ‘Morning has Broken’ and learnt to play a Japanese song on glockenspiels.

This week (March 15) we are doing tie dying so please ensure that you bring a plain white t-shirt for your student.

Touchdown is a program that is run by the Enrichment staff for students with additional needs from Prep – Year 12. It is run on Friday mornings (usually fortnightly basis, depending on events) from 9:30am – 11:30am at Campus 2 – 12 Velorum Drive, Kingston. There is no registration needed if you are attending and you simply come to Campus 2 on the day.

The program will often follow a format of:
• Short devotional
• An activity that has links to curriculum areas and provides students with opportunities to develop social skills.
• Morning tea break
• Finish the activity or games etc.
